Honestly, their visions as a group are so different now it probably won't be nearly what I would be expecting. Look how long it took them to get back together, this was suppose to have been in the works like 2-3 years ago.

And from what I was reading Phife seems like the only one who was down in the beginning since Tip thinks he's a DIVO now.

Yeh, their vision may have changed but A Tribe Called Quest has influened Hip Hop in such a big way. It's undeniable. And to this day they have some of the greatest songs in Hip Hop history! Classic.
The Low End Theory is one of the best albums ever.

we saw rhettmatic, PBW, people undder the starirs @ knitting factory
got to chill with madlib for a minute
people under the stairs @ amoeba
and the conga room show.egon.pbw.georgia anne. dudley. madlib

one of the best live acts
he really takes his time and puts love into his music and it shows

about tribe last night...I was wrong...
the tickets were $58 with service charges and all that..

as far as a report...This was a huge show, thousands of people going nuts..getting rowdy..
i really cant remember the setlist...
lets see..they played oh my god, vibes and stuff, award tour, buggin out,show business, everythin is fair, scenairo -- oh that was pretty funny.. for bustas part they cut the music and let the crowd sing his full verse by the end of the verse nobdy was in unison.."rraahh rrraahh like a ..."
they also did award tour, sucka nigga, bonita applebaum, can i kick it, phoney rappers, i can't really remember what else...

like i said, the sound wasn't the greatest, but the vibe was there -- everybody in the place was moving.

there was a moment of silence for dilla...

uhh.. maybe if DeezNuts sees this he can eloborate....

after the show he asks" what did you smoke in there? you guys got down syndrom"
i was pretty drunk
i was drinking these triple shots if barcadi..
and a few beers...

Incredible show at a so so venue. The sound system sucked! But Tribe was on point. They really seemed happy to be there and really had a good vibe with each other. True performers. The highpoint was a THREE WAY BEAT
BOX EXTRAVAGANZA. They were flowing and beat boxing back and forth and the shit sounded like stereophonic
deluxe colorsound or some shit. Low point is that my suede dunks got stained because the place was packed....Argh

Interests:I'm an addict for sneakers, 20's of buddah and bitches with beepers.

Nice to hear the good reports on the show(s). Guess I have something to look forward to tomorrow. Honestly I thought it was a cash grab with the ridiculous price of tickets, $60+.!?! I paid 30 dollars less 10 years ago when they were here last and that included the price of admission to Canadas Wonderland where they played with Busta, Cypress, and Ziggy Marley . Anyway there's an after party too, another $20 to get into so you can ask Tip "what's up wit' da boots on ya feet?'" Anyway thanfully I'm only paying half for the ticket, friend had an extra asked me last minute, sweet. See ya there tomorrow, we got Rhymefest and the Procussions as well as openers, I expect the place to be packed like a tokyo subway during rush hour Report to follow.
